The  Times  of  the  Eclipfes  contained  in  this  Table  are  adapted 
to  the  Meridian  of  the  Royal  Obfervatory  near  London ;  and  by 
carefully  obferving  the  Times  of  the  Immerfions  and  Emeriiong 
of  this  Satellite,  which  is  the  moll  convenient  and  proper  for 
Geographical  Purpofes  of  any  of  the  other  three,  the  Longitude 
or  Difference  of  the  Meridian  of  the  Place  where  the  Obfer- 
vation  is  made,  and  the  Place  the  Ecl:pfes  are  calculated  for, 
may  be  exactly  difcovered  ;  and  is  the  rnofc  correct  and  practical 
Method  everyet  hit  upon  :  notwithft -mding  the  many  whimfieal, 
and  fome  ingenious  Ways,  invented  for  that  Purpofe,  by  feveral 
Perfons  who  have  fpent  much  Time  and  Labour,  in  Hopes  of 
gaining  the  great  Reward  of  Twenty  Thoufmd  Pound*  offered 
by  P.'-.rliament,  for  a  practical  Method  of  folving  that  grand 
problem  with  Certainty,  but  hitherto  to  no  Effect.  It  is  alfo 
much  more  eafy  and  correct  to  find  the  Difference  of  Meridians 
by  this  Method,  than  by  the  Eclipfes  of  the  Moon,  not  only  011 
Account  of  their  more  frequent  happening,  but  becaufe  tfce

Motion  and  Times  of  thefe  Immerfions  and  Emerfions  are  more 
eafily  obferved,  than  the  Times  of  the  Beginning  and  End  of  a 
Lunar  Eclipfe  ;  becaufe  the  Time  of  the  Moon's  Ingrefs  into 
the  Shadow  of  the  Earth,  and  her  Egrefs  out  of  it,  is  not  eufiiy 
dillinguilhed  from  that  of  her  Penumbra. 

J Jhall  illujlrate  the  Vfe  of  the  liable  by  an  "Example, 

Suppofe,  on  the  14th  Day  of  December,  this  prefent  Year, 
the  Time  of  the  Emerfion  ofJ:piterh  Firft  Satellite  be  obferved 
by  a  Telefcope  to  happen  at  59  Minutes  and  45  Seconds  after 
10  at  Night:  I  find  by  the  Table,  that  the  Time  of  this 
Emerfion  will  happen  at  the  Britifh  Qbfervatory,  the  fame 
Nighr,  at  39  Minutes  and  30  Seconds  pa  It  8  :  The  Difference 
of  Time  is  z  Hours,  zo  Minutes,  and  15  Seconds ;  which  being 
converted  into  Degrees  and  Minutes  of  the  Equ.itor,  gives  35 
Degrees,  3  Minute5,  and  45  Seconds,  the  true  Longitude  Earl-

Wing,  1762.' 


To  explain  the  Cattfes  of  the  Crepufculum,  or  Twil  ' 

to  define  its  Limits, 

«  /"T^HE  Twilight  is  that  dubious  Light,  whic 
**    X     before  the  Sun  rifes,  and  after  the  Sun  fets.  ( 
"  was  no  Atmofphere  about  the  Earth,  nor  any  ]  ^ 
"  from  the  Aura  AEtherea  that  is  near  the  Sun,  fo  fo 
"  the  diurnal  Motion  of  the  Earth,  any  Place  upon  1 
<c  conies  within  the  Shadow  of  the  Earth,  or  fo  fcx 
"  Sun  defcends  below  the  Horizon  of  that  Place,  th 
€€  be  nothing  but  mere  Darknefs ;  becaufe  the  Spefta  ( 
"  forfaken  bf  the  Rays  of  the  Sun,  is  left  deftitute  fl 
"  But  not  only  the  Sun,  but  the  Ethereal  Aura  that  (( 
**  about  the  Sun  very  nearly  to  it  (and  its  inflamed  A  <( 
*'  as  it  were)  do  alfo  fhine,  and  give  fome  Light:  j 
"  fpending  more  Time  than  the  Sun  does  in  rifing  ij 
"  before  the  Sun  rifes  the  Aurora  fhines  ia  a  manifeilty 
"  Figure,  rifmg  into  the  Brightnefs  of  the  fame  Figiil? 
"  of  the  Segment  of  the  Circle  of  the  Atmofphere  of 
"  that  is  already  rifcn,  and  entirely  different  from  thj 
"  proceeds  from  the  Illumination  of  the  Atmofphere 
"  Earth,  made  by  the  Sun  :  Which  is  to  be  nnderftooc1 
**  Manner  concerning  the  Twilight  after  Sun-fet.  Bee; 
**  Matter,-  by  reafon  of  the  Nearnefs  of  the  Sun,  mine 
•«  times  more,  fometimes  lefs,  the  Bcundarres'of  theT 
"  which  arites  from  thence,  are  not  fo  certain,  efpeciall 
"  it  ac~ls  in  conjunction  with  another  more  powerful  C, 
"  th'.s  dubious  Light.    For,  after  an  Inhabitant  of  the  ' 
"  ftanding  upon  its  Surface,  is  revolved  into  the  Shadow 
"  Earth,  beyond  the  'Bounds  of  Light,  the  Atxnofphei 
"  furrounds  the  Earth,  and  is  expanded  to  a  confi< 
«'  Diftance  above  the  Earth,  is  (till  enlightened,  and  do 
*'  its  reflected  Rays  alfo  enlighten  the  Place  where  the  O 
"  ilands, 


Wing%  1762. 

"  This  Caufe  is  often  various,  according  as  more  or  fewer 
"  Particles  fit  for  reflecting  er  otherways  conveying  the  Rays  of 
"  the  Sun  to  us  are  found  fufpended  in  the  Air,  and  according 
"  as  thefe  Particles  get  up  to  a  greater  or  lefs  Height ;  and  this 
"  depends  upon  the  Gravity  of  the  Air,  (it  being  the  Fluid  in 
"  which  they  fwim)  as  is  mewn  by  the  Barometer.  For,  if  they 
"  hang  low  and  very  near  the  Surface  of  the  Earth,  even  thefe 
u  alfo  foon  ceafe  to  receive  any  of  the  Rays  of  Light,  being 
"  revolved  prefently  afterwards,  together  with  the  Flace  over 
"  which  they  hang,  into  the  Earth's  Shadow.  If  they  are 
"  either  very  rare  as  they  float  in  the  expanded  Space,  or  unfit 
"  to  reflect  the  Light,  they  will  return  to  us  either  fuch  a 
"  Light  from  the  Sun  as  is  nothing  to  fpeak  of,  or  at  leaft  fa 
C(  weak  and  thin  as  not  to  be  capable  of  affecting  our  Sight,  as 
"  we  really  experience  in  all  the  expanded  Space  that  lies 
"  without  the  Earth's  Shadow  ;  for,  though  it  lies  perpetually 
"  open  to  the  Sun's  Rays,  yet  it  fends  back  to  us  fo  weak  and 
ff  faint  a  Light,  that  it  fcarce  deferves  that  Name. 

€(  Though  the  Duration  of  the  Twilight,  depending  irpoh 
"  both  thefe  Caufes,  is  various;  yet  it  is  certain,  that  the 
7  Beginning  of  the  Morning  Twilight  happens  generally  about 
"  the  Time  that  the  Sun  is  not  above  18  Degrees  below  the 
"  Horizon  j  and  that  the  Evening  Twilight  ends  about  the 
"  fame  Time,  or  when  the  Sun  is  got  to  the  like  Degree  of 
"  Depreffion  below  the  Horizon.  Tjc/jo  would  have  this  De» 
"  prefiion.of  the  Sun,  that  bqunds  the  Twilight,  to  be  16 
"  Degrees :  Others  extend  it  to  19  ;  that  is,  till  the  lead  Fixed 
f*  Stars  become  viiible.  CaJJlni,  from  his  own  Obfervations, 
If  extends  it  only  to  17  Degrees.  Ricciolus  rinds,  by  his  Gb- 
*•  fervations,  that  it  is  not  the  fame  in  the  Morning  as  it  is  in 
I  the  Evening,  and  that  it  is  different  in  different  Sjcfons  of 
•  the  Year*"
